The Apache Directory Project announces the eighth release of Fortress — 2.0.1.
Apache Fortress is a computer security access management facility written in Java. Other
platforms use the Apache Fortress Rest component. Fortress provides a fine-grained authorization
security model using role-based access control semantics. It’s built to scale to many thousands
of requests per second on top of a fault-tolerant backend using LDAP and runs in many production
environments today.
New features include:
• Unix RFC2307bis posixAccount (User) and posixGroup (Role) auxiliary object classes.
• Enforcement of arbitrary constraints during role activation with dynamic attributes like
location, organization and account.
